Hungary and hospital

Hey yo,

Apparently this evening I am in a good mood(which is strange because I hate Sundays) or maybe it’s just the Corona hehehe.

Ok, last week I went with Victor to his kindergarten for the celebration. It was so sad, I don’t want my EVS to finish it will be the hardest thing ever. I don’t want to leave the kids and the tetas and all my friends I have here.All in all it was very nice and emotional. The parents mentioned Victor that he was the star during this year and they gave him a t-shirt with a picture of all the kids.

We were supposed to go to Budapest this weekend and to Vienna but Victor got sick so instead we went Saturday to Pecs(in Hungary). It was really nice city but it seemed very short.In the night sadly we had to go with Nadja to the hospital,something with her kidneys. She took a lost of test but they didn’t find anything. She is ok now fortunately.  This week I think I have my celebration at the kindergarten too, it would be so much fun:)

 

Ok, that’s it for tonight.

See you guys

Back from Romania

So I went in Romania with Victor for the Easter holidays. It was very good to be back home but very busy, a lot of stuff to do and it passed so fast. I have the feeling that I actually haven’t been home. We celebrated Easter with my grandma and our good friend. We had late dinner (because we eat after we come back from the church) drinked some wine, crakced some eggs, after that we went out. Wonderful evening. We spent time with Victor’s family(my parents are in Germany) and we enjoyed so much the family spirit.

After 2 weeks Nadja(our house mate from Sweden) came to visit us. She had such a funny and loooonggg trip to Bucharest but in the end she arrived. We went to the seaside for 1st of May in Vama Veche. She liked Romania and Bucharest a lot and she was surprised by how many expensive  cars we have . We couldn’t show her how we party sadly because when we went out in our last weekend home almost nobody was in the clubs. More stuff happened but I can’t remember now because I am very tired(and this entry is so baddd).

 

So, I’m leaving you now and I’ll post more next week and some pictures too.

 

See you

 

Short Easter post:)

Yo yo yo, what’s up people?

 

What have you’ve been up to? I have the Holiday spirit again. Here, Sunday is Easter. Too bad we don’t have any money to do anything but maybe we will receive the money tomorrow.Yeahhh,let’s hope for the best. But no smell of sarma an cozonac:)

 

Anyway, Wednesday we had the presentation.Which one? The one about Romania and Bucharest. At the beginning we had some technical problems, the projector didn’t work.I was so nervous but Visnja went to the kindergarten to take the projector and the laptop. Finally we did it but I was not  in the presentation mood anymore. I didn’t like it, people are saying that it was ok but I think they are trying to be politeJ  Good that nobody understands Romanian because I was saying to Victor how bad is it. Nobody from our organization came, I think that was a bit rude but well what can you do…

 

On another note, we painted eggs at the kindergarten. The kids were very excited.

 I don’t know what to write anymore, my inspiration is low. I am waiting for my Easter.

 

I post some picture from the presentation.

 

 

HAPPY EASTER GUYS!!!!!!!

 

P.S. You got the money but tomorrow they will be on the account.

Hello people, It’s time for the weekly update. I’m late a few days because we didn’t had internet. The internet here is so slow. Now that I think about the times when I was mad back at home when I had to waited for a movie to download for 5 minutes. Well, always appreciate what you have:)

So, what’ new? Well since last week nothing much:kindergarten, youth club,university,blogs,articles and planning our “big” video. Our personal project (mine, Victor’s and Yuri’s) is to make a video about EVS with the other EVS volunteers in Croatia. We are really looking forward to do it, too bad we don’t have a HD camera:)

Last Friday, in the kindergarten Petar had a birthday party. He was so funny. He walked in acting so cool and proud. He had a pink t-shirt with Sonic The Hedgehog.short pants and of course sunglasses on his head. He was so cute, I wanted to hug him all day and like we use to say in our house he was The King.

We’ve also been to the university and we had an awkward moment. Nobody knew what to do and they weren’t prepared with the questions. We are supposed to ask the students about youth mobility. Anyway in the end it was ok and we did a good job.

  Nice weather finally came to town. It’s so nice now to stay outside and have a cigarette. The girls are going to the roof to “work” on their tan.

Oh…(I always forget stuff so I never put them in order) on April 4th will have a presentation about Romania. I’m so excited. I hope a lot of people will come.Everyone is invited:)

By the way, we have a ghost in the house but more about this next week.Stay tuned.

See you guys,hugs

I’m back

Hi,

Oh, it’s been such a long time since I posted something. 3 months I think. Where to start from? Ok, the reason I stopped is because we had some problems but I don’t want to talk about this anymore. That’s the only thing we did in the last 3 months. I want a fresh start.

So, we moved to a new house with 5 other girls from Sweden,France,Bulgaria,Latvia and Spain. We get along pretty good.Of course we have some problems, who didn’t clean that and similar stuff but overall I think we manage fine. The two girls from Sweden and France will come with us in Romania.

2 weeks ago we had our mid-term training in Split. It was very nice and fun to see all the volunteers again. We worked very good as a team. I have to say that I didn’t expect to go so well. We promised to visit each other in the summer so I hope will keep that promise. Sadly I couldn’t enjoy it 100% because I got sick(again). (Yeah, my immune system is very,very low. In 6 months I’ve been sick 6 times.) I’ll post some pictures from Split.

We have some new activities now, today we signed  new AA (activity agreement). I’m looking forward to see how that goes. We are still going to the kindergarten. It’s great.Actually now I enjoy it even more. The tetas are great (I hope you didn’t forgot what teta means-teacher). The kids are the same or maybe a few inches taller:)

So, all in all we are good. I’m sure I missed some stuff but I will post more in the upcoming weeks.

I’ll leave now with some pictures again.

See you,

XoXo

Blue week:)

Hello people,

It’s time for me to share again about my EVS experience. Last week I went to Victor’s kindergarten to meet his kids and his tetas. It was so great. The kids are lovely. We played a lot and they really liked me and they wanted to keep me there. We went to the gym where we played basketball and some other games. I was in the girl’s team, of course but sadly we lost. We only won one game. The tetas are really nice and I can see that they are very happy with Victor there and they also wanted to keep me there. But as much as I liked it I have my own kids and tetas:) It was a great experience to “work” with older kids. They are 6 years old. Thursday was the National Day of Romania so that made me miss home a bit more. The next day was Osijek birthday too.Friday I went back to my kindergarten and I read some stories to the kids. You can feel the Christmas spirit not only in the kindergarten but also all around the city. In the weekend we didn’t do anything special, just hang together in the house.

Tomorrow Victor will come to my kindergarten also. I can’t wait to see how the kids will act around him but I’m sure they will love him.

Mostly, it was a good week and I gain more and more experience about EVS and everything in general. I know that if you read my blog you’ll think that everything, 24/7 is great. It’s not exactly like that. It’s normal to have some problems from time to time and it’s actually unavoidable to have them in one year especially when you’re far from home. Nevertheless if you are motivated enough and if you have support you can make it.

See you next week,

Take care and be happy.

P.S. I’ll put the link so you can check our movie. Hope it works http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=2273099268627

Hi again,

Last week was very productive so I hope I don’t forget anything. We had to learn to make a movie to promote the EVS and also to do a poster. So, Tuesday

Oliver came from Macedonia to teach us to do a movie clip. He showed us the program which he used and then we tried it too. One girl joined us, Biljana, she is also our new Croatian teacher. On Wednesday, Oliver shoot some clips for us and we had to work in pairs and make a short movie. Thursday we were free to do whatever movie we wanted with our own music. Later that night we went out to celebrate.  So as you can see steep by steep we learned more and more. We did a pretty good job and everyone was satisfied.  Friday we talked about our EVS promo (because that was the main point); we did the schedule and scenes and everything. Saturday we had the photo session for our EVS poster. Another people joined us too and it was fun despite the weather was not on our side. We wrote EVS with our body. At the end of the shooting we went to a well deserved pizza. I ate an excellent quarto formaggi. Also on Saturday another EVS volunteer from Vukovar (a city near Osijek) came to visit us. She is very nice and fun and she makes very nice bracelet. Sunday was the big day. We filmed the scenes for a few hours. The city was so empty and everything was closed. Despite the “great” atmosphere we did a wonderful job. Marta also helped us with one scene.  Thank you Marta, hope you are reading this.  When we finished me, Yuri, Victor and Biljana edited the movie. We finished it yesterday and I hope it will work to post it somewhere because my two colleagues had problems with it. Today Oliver left home.

So it was a great week even if now we are tired but we have time to rest now. I met some great people, very creative. We had fun. I hope I’ll meet everybody soon.

Tomorrow I’m going to Victor’s kindergarten with him. I’m looking forward to meet his kids.

Take care,

See you soon.
